History
St. Tarasius was a very smart man
and a very charitable one. When he was elected patriarch of Constantinople (the
highest ranking bishop), his first goal was to organize a General Council to
resolve some arguments that were happening between different dioceses within
the Church. He also worked very hard to make sure all the priests and bishops
and laypeople were living holy lives. He even went to visit every single house
and every single hospital in Constantinople, offering help to whomever needed
it.
Activity
Saint Tarasius visited every person
in the town where he lived. But sometimes, we get too busy to even notice our
own neighbors Even if you live in farm country, where the houses are a half-mile
or more apart, you still have neighbors. Today, make it a point to check in on
a neighbor you haven’t seen for a while. Just pop over to say hello and find
out how they are. If you find out they need something, offer to help. Either
way, be sure you pray for them.
